It was great having Tilly board with Amber- she was fabulous with our girl, providing her with lots of stimulation, and us with updates and pictures. I have no reservations is whole-heartedly recommending Amber :)

So glad to have come across Susan, who, while seeing if she was available for caring for Minnie, my Mother, said ... I know Susan and I take my cats to her. Right there, I knew a good reference! 😊 Met with Susan to met prior to leaving Minnie and her little dog Lily and Minnie played well together. Felt peace of mind and loved receiving the pictures Susan sent of Minnie playing with Lily and on their walks. I know I've found my place to leave my wee doggy if ever I need. I know Minnie enjoyed her time there with Susan and Lily and am happy to have found Susan. 🥰

This was our dog's first long separation from us and Adam was great. Our dog really took a liking to him and enjoyed hanging out with his dog, Mr. Pitts. Adam was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times and attentive to meal and snacks. Will go back to Adam next time.

Dana and her pack were very welcoming to my pup. Dana has a nice little yard for the dogs to romp around in and air conditioning in her home to give relief to hot dogs during a heat wave. Dana sent pictures and check ins to make us feel at ease. Dana was easy to communicate with and was accommodating when I was running a bit late for pick up.

Taryn is a kind and conscientious dogsitter. I would recommend her to anyone for dog sitting. Also, my car wouldn’t start after I picked up my dog and she was so helpful during this unforeseeable hiccup. Thank you so much for your kindness and hospitality, Taryn!

Kelly and Ian were fantastic. They took care of our dog Emmi-lou on short notice and were very accommodating of all of her unique needs and high energy. Kelly updated us often with photos and videos, we felt very good about leaving Emmi with such kind people.

Lisa and David went above and beyond during Indy’s stay over Christmas!! It was our first time leaving our puppy and we felt so comfortable knowing she was in their hands. They sent amazing updates on how Indy was adjusting, and photos / videos of her running around their beautiful fenced in property with their two lovely boarder collies, snoozing on the couch, and getting lots of cuddles from all. We will definitely be booking again and Indy already cant wait to go back ❣️

About: We had to say goodbye to our sweet dog last fall and would welcome some occasional furry love in our home again! I understand what’s involved in taking care of a dog properly, all while giving them love and attention. I raised a vizsla dog from puppy through to senior and passing on. He had epilepsy which required daily medication his whole life, was a high energy alpha male, and had lots of minor medical issues. I also grew up with a collie-shepherd rescue when I was younger. During the summer months I don’t work, so looking to add a furry friend to our family while I’m home. I have kids, so while we may go out for occasional outings, if the dog isn’t joining us, the dog would only be home for a few hours. During the school year, I would only be gone weekdays for 4-6 hours. I have a fenced rural property (just under an acre) on the edge of Comox, with access to trails and beaches, galore! There is a mudroom inside our home that is a safe place to leave a dog, or a crate if they feel safe. My children understand how to approach and treat dogs carefully and respectfully (they are 7 and 10 years old). With some blankets on the couch, your dog is welcome up for some cuddles! The house is well setup for a dog, as our last one lived here too. There is always access to fresh water for your pup, we have a walk in shower with easy access from the door on tile, and our home is a comfortable temperature year round with a heat pump.

We had a great experience with Kevin and Jenny. They were very friendly and quickly adapted our dog into their household, making sure he felt relaxed and comfortable during his stay. They send regular updates and kept us in the loop, including photos - no small feat since our pup doesn't like to sit still for them! We wouldn't hesitate to book with them again.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was a little girl! My brother and I grew up with cats , Guinea pigs , dogs and bunny’s! I now own a 3 year old little weiner dog who is very friendly and loves to play! She makes a great companion and friend for your animal if they get along with others! I took care of my elderly grandparents dog for many years. Walking her daily, taking her to appointments and grooming her! I understand the nerves of leaving your pet with a sitter. I will treat them just as my own, I am a very well trusted person who has a deep love for animals as I can assure you your pet is safe with me! I am a bartender and I work 4 days a week, I work short shifts anywhere from 4-6 hours! I’m available most parts of the day as I usually work nights. I will be able to stop in the morning and afternoon and then evening after my shift to look after your furry friend! If your dog loves company I have a three year old weiner dog who loves other animals! She’s extremely friendly and loves to chase! I have .5 of an acre backyard they can run around in. I walk my dog Olive twice a day every day anywhere from 30 minutes to 1.5 hour. I can bring yours along with me! I have a very quiet and calming space with a big yard surrounded by trees! My mother lives above me in the house and I can leave my dog upstairs if they do not get along or that is not something you’re comfortable with!

We could not have asked for a better sitter than Valeria and her family. Lily felt right at home the first time we met them. Both Valeria and husband work from home, which meant someone was always around to give her attention. Their dog Gypsy and Lily hit it off right away and became best buddies during the 17 days we were away. The daily photos of forest walks, yard plays and the two dogs horsing around really put a big smile on our faces while on vacation. The biggest worry we had was Lily not wanting to come back to us after she thinks she hit the jackpot with the perfect family! It was our first time leaving Lily and we are so grateful for the cozy home environment and the love shown to Lily that she never felt like she was being left behind. Not only have we found our permanent sitter, we think we’ll have to find an excuse to leave Lily with Valeria on a regular basis so that Lily can visit her “second family”.

Lorena and Michael took fantastic care of my husky, Nova! She’s a rescue and has some quirks, but they were great with all her needs and very communicative while we were away. Their dog Leia was very sweet and receptive to Nova’s boundaries, and Michael was very knowledgeable with dog cues and behaviour which gave me great confidence in leaving my pup with them. I would leave Nova with them again in a heartbeat! Thanks again.

Sean and his wife are wonderfully warm and welcoming. Our dog was comfortable right away in their home. Sean has previous experience with training and caring for his dogs. Our boy had just received surgery and Sean was respectful of his aftercare. I enjoyed the photos they would send me. When the time comes I would definately call them again!
